Also the scope of the 2,4GHz band will be the same on OpenWRT ? Badder ? Better ?

 

Thx

I am somewhat bemused that we have got to page 42 of this thread and the only working wolution appears to be to run OpenWRT.  Many people have identified the issue here.  Many more users out there who aren't tremotely technically inclined will just be blaming their microwave for the erratic behaviour of the kit.

How long before TP-Link identify the root cause and fix it?

@dIaBoLyK I didn't notice any difference apart from increased stability. Right now it has uptime 57 days and it just works.

@Wetterhahn 

Have you had any issues with the 5GHz band?

@dIaBoLyK 

That was my plan too but be aware that the C6 seems to have issues with the 5GHz band in OpenWrt.

https://forum.openwrt.org/search?q=c6%205ghz

 

@AlexGon 

If I must choose I'd prefer 5Ghz network not working instead of 2.4GHz...

Last question before flashing (tomorrow)

 

my actual firmware permit to put an adress different from 192.168.1.1 and I would use the 192.168.31.1

 

is it possible with openWRT ?

 

thank you
